Beyond that it depends on what you know and what kind of work you want to do.

Unless you’re working with people who are too smart, then sometimes the code only explains the how. Why did the log processor have thousands of lines about Hilbert Curves? I never could figure it out even after talking with the person that wrote it.
I’ve never been an SRE nor had to deal with super demanding giant corporate customers, but that seems exceptionally insane.
Serious suggestion: would the terms of your SLA allow you automate those emails to customers? Then you’d only have to actually deal with replies from customers. (Who I assume aren’t replying in the middle of the night.)
For the purposes of data collection, the US basically isn’t foreign for AU: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Five_Eyes
We tried that in the 90s, it went poorly: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trans_fat#History
The day Firefox shutters its doors is the day the internet truly dies.
*the web
The internet has so far been doing a much better job surviving as a proper decentralized system than the web.
The light is visible, the flashing isn’t.
The top white rectangle is a multi-color LED (presumably RGB). Can’t make out what’s in the bottom, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it was some form of light sensor for (literally) flashing new information onto the tag.
That’s a problem anywhere with user generated content & user defined communities. The usual example is that when BOTW came out there were at least half a dozen subreddits created and more than one survived, so there were two that were both really popular at the same time and that’s in addition to multiple Zelda and multiple Nintendo subs that might all get the same links/posts.
Its a non-powered version of a hot shoe, both of which are the thing you use to mount an external flash that’s on the top of a lot of (all?) full sized cameras.
It’s for a hook to keep the handset on when the phone is mounted flat on a wall. It can usually be slid/folded down or removed when its not need.
As far as I’m aware something like that isn’t really possible.
- it would prevent one person from making multiple fake accounts
How do you define ‘a person’ and how do you ensure that they only have one account? Short of government control of accounts, I don’t think you can really guarantee this and even then there’s still fraud that gets past the current government systems.
Then, how do you verify that the review is coming from the person that the account is for?
IMO, we’d all be better off going back to smaller scale social interactions, think ‘social media towns’ you trust a smaller number of people and over time develop trust in some. Then you can scale this out to more people than you can directly know with some sort of web-of-trust model. You know you trust Alice, and you know Alice trusts Bob, so therefore you can trust Bob, but not necessarily quite as much as you trust Alice. Then you have this web of trust relationships that decay a bit with each hop away from you.
It’s a rather thorny problem to solve especially since for that to work optimally you’d want to know how much Alice trusts bob, but that amounts to everyone documenting how much they trust each of their friends, which seems socially… well… difficult.
Though the rest is actually easy™:
- reviews wouldn’t be suppressed or promoted by paid algorithms
- the algorithm WOULD help connect people to items they are interested in. But maybe the workings of it would be open source, so it can be audited for bad acting.
You do what the fediverse does, you have all the information available to everyone, then you run your own ‘algorithm’ that you wrote/audited/trust. The hard part is getting others to give away access to all ‘their’ data.
If you have any straight straws, you might want to hold them up to the light. They get pretty grody on the inside.
I’m not sure that applies to billionaires, who have unlimited access to the best possible medical care.
Yep, the extra sad thing is that there are actually sold listings too: https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=steam+deck+OLED&rt=nc&LH_Sold=1&LH_Complete=1
Some people just can’t be helped, I guess.
Bad Bot! You stripped out the only important part of the article:
For the special Limited Edition version Valve has said:
You need to be in the United States or Canada. Your account needs to be in good standing. Your account needs to have made a purchase on Steam before November 2023. Only one unit may be purchased per account.
If their experiment with this extra Limited Edition model goes well, we may see others come in future.
Additionally, their FAQ also notes for the normal 512GB and 1TB Steam Deck OLED models you will only be able to purchase “1 model of Steam Deck OLED per customer per week” but they plan to relax that when they’re confident they can meet demand.
Also, the LE is still showing as in-stock for me: https://store.steampowered.com/sale/steamdeck_2023LE
I think the OOS labels it showed a couple times might have just been from the servers getting overloaded.
Yep! I got one.
Got it into my cart within seconds, didn’t even get through more than the cart screen before I started getting 502 errors. Eventually went out of stock. But, showed back in stock a few minutes later and I was able to get my order in. My order email shows 12:29 (10:29 PST).
Already had a 512 Deck that I got in Feb 2022, but when you combine mainstream Linux gaming, OLED, and a translucent shell, apparently I have no self-control.
You’re an Agnostic.
